I was recently listening to a broadcast. The title was "hectic or holy?"
With all the business that surrounds and can consume us at Christmas I ask you, is Christmas hectic or holy for you?
I'll have to be honest, it's been a little hectic for me this year.
Organizing costumes for a drama our church is presenting, drama rehearsals, cooking, shopping, cleaning, parenting, play group, homework, dog training... H E C T I C !
I must admit, I was not surprised when I woke up with a sore throat and headache. Since I've been so busy maybe this is God's way of making me take a quieter day.
I'm going to take some time today and remember what Christmas is really about.
God.
God became flesh and dwelt among us (John 1:14).
Wow. That is HOLY!
I've been getting the daily Max Lucado Christmas devotionals. I was so encouraged by one of them. It spoke about how when we finally pull ourselves out from under all the hustle and bustle that is ours, HE IS STILL THERE. He is always there when we turn to Him. . . what a blessing that was to my heart.
